Spell Save DC uses INT-modifier, not WIS-modifier![edit source]

I just looked at the combat log after using Stage Fright (on Patch 6), and for the succeeded saves, it shows how the spell save DC is calculated (interestingly it doesn't show it for the failed saves):

8 + INT-modifier + Proficiency Bonus (+ effects of items that modify Spell Save DC like Cloak of the Weave etc.)

Btw, Bless or Guidance don't influence that (idk if that is so for spell save DC-calculation in general - I'm not much of a spellcaster).

  • Hi, I see how it may be confusing but this is stated on the page. Wisdom is the saving throw the target has to make to resist the Stage Fright effect, and it is always wisdom they have to roll. However, the DC they have to beat with their wisdom roll is your Spell save DC. Your spell save DC is based on your spellcasting modifier which for wizards is intelligence. This means that if a wizard uses stage fright on an enemy, that enemy has to make a wisdom saving throw (increased their wisdom modifier) and the roll they have to beat will be your Spell save DC (increased by your intelligence modifier).
    Also, Bless increased your attack rolls and saving throws which helps hit attacks and resist effects like stage fright. If you want something that influence your hit chance with things like stage fright you need something that increases your Spell save DC or debuff the enemies saving throws with Bane Bane for example.
    Hope this helps and isn't too long of a response.
